"If you follow Chen Tou, Chen Tou will save your life." Mrs. Liu said. Before Chen Guanlou had time to refute, Bilu had already begun to shake his head desperately and cried: "I don't want to, I don't want to. Master can't just send me away with just one word, to a strange person and a strange place. Even if I die, I I am also willing to stay with the master. Master, let me continue to serve you, and the little master." Green eyes looked at Liu eagerly. Mrs. Liu sobbed softly, she was so beautiful even when she was crying. The broken beauty gives people a perverted sense of satisfaction. The fragile beauty with no resistance, as if it can be crushed with a hand. Chen Guanlou thought for a while, then took a clean handkerchief and handed it to the other party. Mrs. Liu took the handkerchief and sobbed while wiping her tears, "You are so stupid! If you follow His Highness, you will be marked as His Highness. From now on, you will not be able to escape. If His Highness disappears one day, as a Your Highness’s women will all be buried with you, and no one can live alone. It’s not too late to change your mind.” "This slave has made up his mind and asks the master to make it happen." Bilu said firmly. "What a fool." Mrs. Liu felt disgusted, guilty and distressed at the same time. The master and servant hugged each other and cried. As an old man, Chen Guanlou couldn't bear to see this scene, so he decisively went out and chopped firewood in the yard to vent his endless energy. Half an hour later, the maid Bilu helped Ms. Liu out of the room.
Mrs. Liu felt a little sorry, "I made Mr. Chen laugh." "It doesn't matter! I've seen you in worse situations." As soon as these words came out, both parties were a little embarrassed. The worse time was, of course, when Li Dahong just passed away, when Liu, a widow, was left alone and helpless. Without the help of the jail guards, Li Dahong's funeral would not have been possible. Mrs. Liu wiped her slightly red and swollen eyes and lowered her head slightly, "Just pretend I haven't been here today. I've caused you too much trouble, so please forgive me." "Don't be so pessimistic!" Chen Guanlou looked at the other party, "Things haven't reached the worst yet, why don't you try to make some efforts and make some preparations." Mrs. Liu smiled sadly, "They are all on the list. No matter how hard they try, they can't escape. Even His Highness has been defeated. What can we, the female family members, do? We are the swordsmen and we are the flesh and blood. There is nothing human can do." Chen Guanlou thought for a while and suddenly asked: "Is there a warrior protecting His Highness?" "Of course." Ms. Liu didn't quite understand, but she still answered truthfully. "Is there a grandmaster?" Chen Guanlou felt a little nervous in his heart. Mrs. Liu was stunned and said, "I have never met the Grand Master. But I know that during the palace change, there was a strange eunuch beside His Highness. Although he could not be seen, I knew that the eunuch was beside His Highness." "Why do you think that eunuch is a master?" "Because His Highness once said that no one can kill him unless the Grand Master does it himself. In the past, His Highness would occasionally go out incognito, with only two or three people waiting around him every time he left the palace. However, no one seemed to have ever worried about His Highness's safety. ." After Mrs. Liu explained what she had learned, she sighed softly, "If one day, the palace makes a decree, will the Grand Master still protect His Highness?" "I don't know, I've never even met a grandmaster." Chen Guanlou thought for a while and said, "Since His Highness has a grandmaster to protect him, you should feel more at ease. As His Highness said, the only person who can kill him is the grandmaster. ” "But if His Majesty makes a decree..." "So what. When people are forced into a desperate situation, they can't just swallow their anger and accept it. They have to do the opposite, right?" "If we do otherwise, everyone will be implicated." "If not, wouldn't other people be implicated? Do you know Xie Changling? He has been imprisoned in the sky prison. The purge of the East Palace has just begun, and more people will definitely be imprisoned in the future." Upon hearing this, Madam Liu immediately clutched her chest, "Is Mr. Xie being imprisoned?" "Yes!"
Mrs. Liu cried silently, "Master Xie is a very capable person. His Highness has always relied on him. He has said many times that Xie Aiqing will serve the imperial court in the future. Unexpectedly, he would become a prisoner overnight." "So... you can try to persuade His Highness that it is always a good idea to be more prepared." Mrs. Liu nodded with tears in her eyes, "You are right. If you don't ask for anything else, you can at least save a trace of your blood. You know my maid Bilu. If one day she comes to find her alone, I hope you can help her." "Master..." Bilu was anxious. "Okay!" Chen Guanlou agreed decisively, "If one day you are in trouble, I can help you as much as I can." Liu's master and servant left, and Chen Guanlou was eating meat and drinking wine alone, which was tasteless. Prince Zhong’s Mansion is in a bad situation! Otherwise, Mrs. Liu would not run up to him and cry like a headless fly. Obviously, someone is putting pressure on Prince Zhong's palace. As long as Prince Zhong makes a wrong move, he will have an excuse to continue suppressing him until the palace of Prince Zhong is completely eradicated. It's very lively today. In the middle of the night, Qi Wuxiu, who had disappeared for a long time, climbed over the wall and came in. He was unshaven and looked like he was down and out with no roof over his body. Chen Guanlou teased him: "Are you bankrupt? Is your house gone?" Qi Wuxiu was like a zombie, drinking and silent. Chen Guanlou stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in the other person's ear, "Hey, I'm back." "Today I followed Shangguan to Prince Zhong's Mansion." Qi Wuxiu was finally willing to speak. "Then?" "Everyone in Prince Zhong's mansion was like a frightened rabbit. His Highness Prince Zhong's face was pale. Didn't you see the scene? It was like he was ready to drink poison at any time, and even wrote a will." "So?" Chen Guanlou was like a supporting actor, not commenting, just listening to the other party's story. "I have never seen him so desperate." Qi Wuxiu grabbed his hair, looking very depressed, "Why is it so, why is it so! It's not enough to cripple someone, you have to force him to death?" "What did you discuss internally in the Jinyiwei? What are you doing in the Zhongwang Mansion today?" Chen Guanlou asked tentatively. "The Jinyiwei was ordered to go to the Zhongwang Mansion, just to take a look and ensure the safety of the Zhongwang Mansion. I didn't expect that they would be frightened like that." "You Jinyiwei are famous, it's normal to be frightened." Chen Guanlou drank tea, his thoughts became clearer. "I feel like someone in the palace wants to force Prince Zhong to death." "Why don't you just say that the old emperor wants to force Prince Zhong to death." "No, no, no..." Qi Wuxiu shook his head desperately, "The Jinyiwei has been investigating some people recently, obviously to speak up for His Royal Highness Prince Zhong. Your Majesty must be so conflicted, supporting His Royal Highness Prince Zhong on the one hand, and forcing him to death on the other. Impossible. There must be someone else. Also, I have accurate information that Prime Minister Wu is about to retire, and Prime Minister Li's position has not changed. Such an obvious signal, His Majesty kept Prime Minister Li just to use Li Xiang's hand to protect His Royal Highness Prince Zhong. Prime Minister Wu retired, and His Royal Highness Prince Jin is in a bad situation, this is a warning."
